Granted: 1994-07-20
Abstract: An X-ray tomograph which extracts data corresponding to the transmission data of parallel beam X-rays from X-ray transmission data collected on the basis of fan beam X-rays and reconstructs an image on the basis of the extracted data, wherein shower-like artifact occurring in the reconstructed image due to the influence of an instantaneous change in the X-ray intensity is eliminated, characterized by storing a plurality of views of output data from a data collection unit in a buffer memory, calculating the weighted average on the data of a plurality of views stored in the buffer memory to obtain view data free from the influences of the X-ray intensity change, and replacing the view data affected by the X-ray intensity change by this view data.

Abstract: A device to determine human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine is described. It includes:   a) a first area, consisting of a material able to draw urine by capillarity, on which an hCG bioselective colored agent is absorbed, an end of said first area, to be dipped in urine, while the other end contacts with the following b) area; b) a reading area which contacts the previous one and an area of a material able to assure the capillary flow of urine, on which there is bound:     1) a protein able to selectively bind hCG and possibly;   2) hCG (positive reagent control) and 3) an inert protein (negative reagent control) disposed so as to form, after the reaction with the bioselective colored reagent present in a), two different figures which can be visually detected according to the positivity of the analysis;   c) a further area, an end of wich contacts the previous one, of a material able to assure the capillary flow of urine towards the other end containing an indicator revealing the occured passage of urine through the A device.   According to the invention, pregnancy analysis becomes easier because the a device is dipped just once in the sample to be tested and because the results are simple to read.

Title: Apparatus for demolishing pipes on the inside
IPC: E21B7/26
Filed: 1989-10-25
Granted: 1992-03-25
Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for demolishing pipes (1) on the inside, in particular for underground supply and drainage pipes of any material and dimensions, the force being applied directly onto the pipes to be renewed. In this apparatus, either one ground rocket (14) designed as a hollow body or, via a steel jacket, a plurality of interconnected ground rockets (14) formed from cylinder (16) or the like are connected directly to splitting wedges (8) which bring about the demolition process on the inside. To increase the demolition force, the splitting wedges (8) can additionally be moved forwards and backwards, dynamically by means of compressed air or statically by means of a hydraulic ram. In the still undemolished part, a guide member (5) can run ahead, overlapping a mounting pipe (7) engaging over the pipe (1) to be demolished. Owing to the short structure, the apparatus can be installed in and removed from existing inspection devices. The new pipeline consisting of pipes (17) immediately follows the apparatus. <IMAGE>

Title: Ski boot
IPC: A43B5/04
Filed: 1989-10-30
Granted: 1993-04-14
Abstract: In the heel area of a ski boot a rubber torsion spring element is arranged, the core piece of which is anchored in a rotationally fixed manner on the lower shell of the ski boot by means of a bracket. An outer tubular piece, which surrounds the core piece coaxially, is connected to a tension member which engages with its end at the rear on a rear shaft part of the boot shell. The rear shaft part and a front shaft part are pivotable relative to the lower shell about an articulation axis into a forward lean position. The spring element damps the forward lean movement and, by means of the use of snappy rubber compounds, is extensively independent of the ambient temperature. Additionally, it allows the adjustment at least of the starting point of the spring or damping effect by means of a knurled nut.

Abstract: Housing intended to enclose in particular a logic circuit (15) including two shells (11a, 11b) each including a weld zone (17a, 17b) of geometry suitable to permit ultrasonic welding, and such that when the two shells are assembled before the welding operation, they are offset along a vertical axis (20). The support (13) includes a mounting ear (23) whereas the shells include a seating (33a, 33b). During the welding operation, no concomitant contact exists between each one of the upper (26) and lower (27) faces of the ear (23) and the corresponding bearing faces (34a, 34b) of the seatings, thanks to the offset (21). This offset lessens and the concomitant contact is brought about between the bearing faces (34a, 34b) of the seatings and each of the upper and lower faces (26, 27) of the ear (23) only at the end of the welding operation.

Abstract: Automating the chain production of printed circuit coils is difficult, because once winding has been carried out, the loose ends of the input and exit wires of said winding are hard to locate and grasp, given the fineness of the wires in question. This method aims to keep these wire ends taut once they are cut by keeping a sufficient length of each wire free, so that each wire remains taut when it is taken, by mechanical means, to the soldering position. A device for keeping each wire taut is described.

Abstract: A process for treating a gas stream to remove or recover a condensable component. The process involves a condensation step and a membrane concentration step. The condensation step may be followed by the membrane step, or vice versa. The process can be designed to yield only two product streams: one, the condensed liquid, ready for use, reuse or discard, and two, a residue gas stream, which in most cases will be clean enough for direct discharge or reuse. This result is achieved by recycling other streams within the process. Recovery of 90% or more of the condensable component can be achieved. The process offers substantially energy savings compared with condensation alone.

Abstract: When handling data transmissions on the basis of requests which are made by the individual input/output modules (M1...Mn) with different priority levels, the data to be transmitted (DAT) and control information items (PAR,ADR) of a finally accepted request are entered into a buffer memory (IBUF) of a control device (ZCU). The buffer memory (IBUF) has a storage capacity corresponding to the data volume of a predetermined maximum number of requests. After the data units have been entered for a predetermined lower number of requests as limit value, the control device (ZCU) now only accepts further requests of the highest priority level until the maximum permissible number of requests is reached whereas requests of a lower priority level are rejected until the data units drop below the predetermined limit value by forwarding of the data units belonging to an accepted request and stored in the buffer memory (IBUF). As a result, the filling level of the buffer memory can be flexibly determined as a function of the priority of data transmissions to be executed. <IMAGE>
